River Three-Bet Sees Diaz Take Chip Lead
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
There was a modest amount of 175,000 chips in the pot when Martin Diaz made a bet of 45,000 from the big blind on the completed board of 7♣J♥6♦8♣4♥. His opponent was Nicolas Vayssieres in middle position, who made a large raise to 280,000. Diaz asked how much Vasyssieres played before clicking it back to 515,000, almost putting his opponent all in.
Vayssieres mulled it over for a good bit before eventually passing his cards and some time bank extensions to the dealer, forfeiting the pot to Diaz, who became the new chipleader of the field.
